Chapter 176: 176

176 「I can tell just by looking at your face. 」

Tushan Jiu and several people heard the sound and looked over.

Because many people were gathered there, they couldn't see exactly who the person on the ground was.

But Tang Xin and Zheng Tong Tong had an indescribable feeling, feeling very uneasy.

The two quickly got up, didn't even have time to say a word to Tushan Jiu, and ran into the crowd.

Their profession also has strong medical expertise, so performing first aid measures is no problem; at this moment, any sudden illness is golden rescue time, and must not be missed.

Tushan Jiu also didn't see the person, but she saw a ghost.

Oh, no, to be precise, she saw ghostly energy.

The person lying on the ground had accumulated a lot of yin energy, which was now spreading outward.

Tushan Jiu took a deep breath, looked helplessly at Xie Shiyu, and said: "Boyfriend, plans can't keep up with changes; I seem to have come back to life."

Xie Shiyu asked her, "Have you eaten enough?"

"Hmm, pretty much."

Xie Shiyu nodded, "Then let's go, let's check it out."

Just as Tushan Jiu stood up, she heard Tang Xin's panicked voice after pushing through the crowd: "Liu Qi!"

Tushan Jiu paused, then quickened her steps a bit.

Zheng Tong Tong and Tang Xin were giving Liu Qi a simple checkup, and had the surrounding crowd disperse to keep the air flowing.

After the two's simple examination, Liu Qi's breathing was normal, and his pulse was normal.

Therefore, CPR and artificial respiration—these first aid measures—cannot be performed.

They had just finished eating, so hypoglycemia is unlikely.

But now the person is completely unconscious.

There were also no medical devices nearby, and they dared not move him arbitrarily, not knowing if it was a brain disorder or something else; they could only keep him in a recovery position and wait for the ambulance.

Tushan Jiu pulled Xie Shiyu closer.

Within three meters, Xie Shiyu is comparable to a super powerful air purifier.

The yin energy on Liu Qi's body quickly dissipated.

Tushan Jiu glanced at Xie Shiyu, then pursed her lips and smirked; when she first came to the Xie Family, he was effective within a diameter of three meters, but as his fortune flow sped up, this 'system upgrade' made it effective within a radius of three meters.

Just then, the previously unconscious Liu Qi suddenly sat up like a fake corpse.

This startled the people around him.

Especially Tang Xin, who was nearest to him, screamed and instinctively punched him.

"Ow, my face! Tang! Xiao! Xin!"

Tang Xin swiftly pulled back her hand, grabbed his face to look, and said, "Just a little, just a little, human instinct."

Zheng Tong Tong let out a big sigh of relief and asked him, "What happened?"

"I don't know either; just after I finished clearing the trays, I was going to find you, but after walking a few steps I suddenly felt weak all over, then my vision went black and I didn't know anything." Liu Qi explained.

Tang Xin and Zheng Tong Tong stood up together, reached out, and pulled him up.

"The ambulance will be here soon; we'll go straight to the hospital for a full checkup." Tang Xin said uneasily.

"Everyone, disperse, it's fine, thank you for your concern and help." Zheng Tong Tong said to the surrounding people.

Liu Qi himself works in this field, so he naturally knows that fainting for no reason is a serious matter that cannot be ignored; if there really is some illness, early detection and treatment are best.

"I've even signed a body donation agreement; if I really kick the bucket one day, I'd become their dissection subject—that would be interesting."

The crowd dispersed, and Liu Qi also noticed Tushan Jiu looking at him.

He greeted: "Tushan Jiu, long time no see, but I now need to go to the hospital for a checkup; I don't have time to catch up, otherwise I'll leave contact info and we can have a meal after my checkup—after all, our little genius finally made it back to Yun Da, and it's been a while since I've had a meal with Professor Mao, so let's all get together."

"Yeah, are you busy tonight? If not, let's get together." Tang Xin also nodded.

Zheng Tong Tong also looked over eagerly; she also happened to be able to discuss two issues with her!

Tushan Jiu looked at Liu Qi and said, "You don't need to go to the hospital for a checkup; your body is fine."

Liu Qi looked puzzled, "How do you know that?"

"I can tell just by looking at your face." Tushan Jiu said truthfully.

Tang Xin, Zheng Tong Tong: "???"

Tushan Jiu smiled faintly without speaking, and said in a low voice: "Liu Qi just got some yin energy; it's not a big problem. Let's go, let's talk somewhere else—there are too many people here, discussing ghosts will cause panic."

"!!!" The three looked bewildered, you look at me, I look at you.

She's telling this to a forensic pathology student, a judicial evidence student, and a forensic anthropology student—saying the world has ghosts?

Wait, Tushan Jiu herself is also a forensic medicine major!

Her anatomy classes have always completely crushed Zheng Tong Tong's.

Now she's saying this—is the contrast maybe too big?

I don't know why, but the three of them all turned their gazes to Xie Shiyu.

But Xie Shiyu just gave a faint smile, his expression seeming ordinary.

Tushan Jiu and Xie Shiyu didn't leave right away; instead, they returned to their previous spot, simply tidied up the table, and sent it to the tray return area.

Then they washed their hands before leaving the cafeteria.

Liu Qi and the three of them mechanically followed behind the two.

Tushan Jiu went to the coffee shop they usually go to for discussion and study.

This coffee shop has private booths, offering relatively good privacy.

After a year apart, the four reunited again; the setting was still familiar, but this time they weren't discussing professional matters.

Xie Shiyu sat there drinking the coffee Tushan Jiu recommended, feeling the taste was quite good.

The other three didn't know how to start asking, Tushan Jiu calmly took a sip of her sugary, milky cappuccino and said, "What I said in class last time wasn't false; the family business I'm going to inherit is also related to metaphysics."

All three were smart; they had already guessed roughly on the way here.

Zheng Tong Tong's expression was a mix of laughter and tears as she directly asked, "Are you a Daoist?"

"No, I'm a debt collector." Tushan Jiu didn't hide it, and she explained to them this extremely niche profession of debt collectors.

After hearing that, the three all simultaneously opened their mouths wide, wearing looks of utter disbelief.

However, they were just hearing something that shattered their previous worldview, but they didn't disbelieve it, because after four years of getting along, they still had this trust.

Tang Xin thought for a moment and asked, "Then what do you mean by saying that Liu Qi has been tainted with yin qi? Did he encounter a ghost?"
